AnComm Upgrades 'Global Alert(TM)' Emergency Notification Service for Schools

AnComm, the nation's first and only anonymous online messaging and emergency notification service provider for schools, today announced a significant enhancement to the company's 'Global Alert' emergency notification service that now supports real-time communications sent to all mobile devices in the event of a school shooting or natural disaster. With cell phones and other mobile devices playing an increasingly integral role in emergency situations where students may be dispersed across a campus or locked down in a classroom and unable to access other forms of communication, this new enhancement to AnComm's 'Global Alert' service ensures that emergency communications sent via the 'Global Alert' service are received by all forms of mobile communication devices, including cell phones, text messaging devices, PDAs and other types of wireless devices.

AnComm's 'Global Alert' service is an integrated component of the company's flagship service called 'Talk About It' -- a leading school safety solution currently in use by more than 100 schools in 16 states across the United States -- that enables school administrators to dramatically improve the flow and frequency of communication between faculty and students. With AnComm's 'Global Alert' service, school administrators are empowered with a simple, easy-to-use tool to rapidly disseminate broad-based emergency communications in order to proactively prevent violent situations in elementary and secondary schools, and institutions of higher education. 'Global Alert' is provided at no additional cost to all current subscribers of AnComm's 'Talk About It' anonymous online messaging service.

"Designed for emergency situations such as a school shooting or situation where inclement weather poses imminent danger, AnComm's 'Global Alert' emergency notification service provides school administrators with a cost- effective tool for sending real-time communications to all faculty, students, parents and law enforcement," said Carter Myers, President of AnComm. "And now with support for all mobile communication devices, schools subscribed to AnComm's 'Talk About It' will have confidence in knowing that everyone -- regardless of where they may be -- will receive notification and thus be able to take action to protect themselves and prevent greater loss of life."
